Asmongold reveals all.
Twitch sensation Asmongold is known for his complex relationship with World of Warcraft developers, Activision Blizzard, and has spoken out regarding the ongoing lawsuit against the company.
It has been revealed that gaming behemoth Activision Blizzard is being sued by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (CDFH) for fostering a “pervasive frat boy culture.”
Uncovering that many female employees have been subject to sexual harassment and lower paychecks, the CDFH report reveals that one employee took her own life during a work trip due to a sexual relationship with her male supervisor.
Twitch streamer and longtime World of Warcraft player, Asmongold, who has had a very publicly tense relationship with AB, has given his thoughts.
In a tweet from July 21 just after the news broke, Asmongold has called out the company for their “shameful” behavior.
“Shameful to hear about what’s been reportedly going on at Blizzard,” he writes. “As a 20+ year fan it really hurts to see how things have devolved in such an awful way.”
Concluding that it “just makes me sad,” the tweet may be short, but the message behind it is incredibly powerful.
